Hello, I saw this thread over on a few forums and i was curious what stations are the best and worst sounding. This is my opinion purely, but I’d like to share it.
Best:
* KMVQ (Bonneville / Top 40)
* KITS (Audacy / Alternative)
* KOSF (iHeartMedia / 70’s, 80’s and 90’s)
* KALW (SFUCD / Talk, News and More)
Worst:
* KISQ (iHeartMedia / AC)
* KEZR (Alpha / Hot AC, arguable CHR)
* KBAY (Alpha / Country)
* KBLX (Bonneville / Urban AC)
Alpha is obvious from my other thread, no HD Radio automatically is a massive hit to audio quality, but their processing sounds flat awful. KISQ has a weird similar situation too, but they have HD, but it just sounds flat and weird like KITS before the return of Live 105.
I listen to the radio much too often throughout the day and drive all throughout the bay, so I have become pretty used to FM radio and noticed these observations. It is in no way objective, I try to judge signals only with strong signal.
